To support certificate holders, Responsible Wood has prepared a guidance document that explains how sustainable forest management certification aligns with ESG obligations.
The resource highlights how the Australian Standard for Sustainable Forest Management (AS/NZS 4708-2021) and Responsible Wood certification already address many core ESG requirements. It also shows how certification can provide credible evidence to support reporting on environmental, social, and governance indicators.
If you hold Responsible Wood or PEFC certification, this document will help you:
- Understand ESG in the context of sustainability reporting
- Identify where certification supports ESG disclosure requirements
- Use audits and certification evidence to demonstrate compliance and continuous improvement.
